On Monday night, weather permitting, a repair operation will begin, closing the ramp during the overnight hours from southbound Route 222 to westbound Route 30 in Manheim Township, according to Pennsylvania Department of Transportation.

The ramp closures, which will occur between 9 p.m. and 5 a.m., are expected to continue for the next few weeks. Traffic will be detoured by way of eastbound Route 30 to the interchange with Route 23 (New Holland Pike), onto Route 23, and then to westbound Route 30. Motorists on southbound Route 222 may also opt to use Oregon Pike to access westbound Route 30.

The repair work includes diamond grinding the existing ramp and shoulder pavement, joint sealing, spall repairs, and the installation of shoulder rumble strips and line painting.
